there's been rumors that we'll get a free t-shirt with membership.

I can see that, he must have loads left over from the old store. Maybe they'll come rolled up with a candle in the centre? lol

if it's just 2 view videos ..nope


if it's 2 have the privilage of seeing him in concert WITHOUT a reduction on the actual ticket price ...nope

if the price is a reasonable fee like $25 or below..then yes


so at this point ..just give up the new music and everything will b fine
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

I would pay for product, always will, but membership fees.... what for? I hate membership fees. If you have a good product - set a price. I dislike the Rent-A-Center prepaid credit card feel of 'Music Clubs'. Especially when the business has a history of disappearing.
Life without music..... why?

I agree about the videos, but to have the opportunity to purchase tickets in advance and be guaranteed a GREAT seat...HELL YEAH!!

The only way I would be willing to pay for the videos is if they were hq mpg files that can be burned to dvd and viewed on my television. I'm not paying for DRM wmv or mp4 files anymore. They are a waste, especially since you can't do anything with them.

You'd take a crappy download over a high quality cd?

I understand about how some may feel about Prince and his former website and business practices, but if he does it right (with a reputable company), it would be worth it to me.

I don't think you understood me. If they are releasing the silver backs, I will not be paying to access the site.

Yeah, I'll sign up. Where did the $77 amount come from--has that been officially announced somewhere? Doesn't sound too bad if there's as much content as his past sites have had.

Backinthaday, I paid the $100. for NPGMC. My friend thought I was stupid. Then ONA happened. I went to soundcheck, he & his wife got tix in the back row of Lincoln Center. He went home and joined the next day.

Yeah, I'll pay again. I don't want to end up in a back row if it comes to that. nod

I've been giving Prince my money for almost 30 years and we don't even wanna talk about NPGMC. I'm done! neutral


How have you been giving him your money? You feel he should give you the cd's for free?

And NPGMC? I do not care what people say, that club price was WELL worth it! I got years of fabulous concert tickets, music, and so on...



npggirl77,

Well Said! Everything You Said...Well Done!

I'm 99% sure I'll pony up unless it's ridiculously expensive. I also hope there's some kind of understanding that this website will be around for at least a few years. The $25 fee for the NPGMC was definitely worth it in my opinion, but I'm sure people who became members in the final few days will disagree.

No. Been down that road.

I will buy the CDs when they are in a brick and mortar and rip them to my iPod. I will not pay for promises. Prince has shown us that he grows bored quickly with these kind of projects, and when members cry fowl on promises not kept, Prince takes the offensive.

C-Note was a good little EP, but it was an obvious "fuck you" to us - his core fanbase.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I'll gladly pay the fee.

It kills me to listen to fans for years say that if he would produce high quality vids and music over boots... they would gladly pay if he released them.(The Coachella vids for instance) Now that it seams he may just in fact be doing that.... they claim they won't pay.... but I bet they will 'steal' try to get their hands on the product. (And no that wasn't a mis-spell)

I will be paying!
I AM a long-time Fan!
I do not feel that I have paid anywhere near THOUSANDS of dollars, however I am NOT one of those people that want to live with "free" Mp3's that are low quality.
I do not want to steal his work, therefore I will pay for the music.
I do enjoy what NPGMC brought to me and I feel that it paid for itself, so YES I was a member and YES I will pay again to be a member.
I will get access to things that non-payers wont have access to, and I will be happy about that.

Do u work for Prince????? lol
